We finally have come across the resources to can up the farm. We are talking marinara sauce, pickles and preserves to start with. We are going to start canning this week so keep an eye out for it in the store in the weeks to come. 100% organic goodness in a jar. Picked and canned at the peak of ripeness, with no shelf stabilizers or preservatives. All ingredients you can pronounce and happily feed to your family sold exclusively through our CSA program.
Cindy Dollar is cooking up some Raisin Pecan granola this week for you in her kitchen right here in Goleta. Support local business, munch some amazing granola and get your breakfast supplies right here in our CSA store.

Excuse the lack of blogging while I take this month to move. We are up to about 200 chickens now that require constant attention which has left me slacking on the social media. We look forward to providing eggs to all of our CSA customers that want them and local restraunts as well. The more people we can reach to use local produce, the better.
Cindy Dollar is cooking up some Coconut Seed OR Pumpkin Pecan granola this week. Check out her ridiculously good cookies too. Peanut butter chocolate oatmeal or cran-chocolate almond cookies. Seriously good stuff. Get enough to share 🙂

Red tomatoes (cherries too), green beans, peppers, artichokes, potatoes and cantaloupe and watermelon in the near future. We are doing extra plantings of broccoli so hopefully we will see that soon. It’s been too long, but we have been having problems with it all year.
Cindy Dollar is cooking up a few different flavors of granola this week. Choose between Cranberry Cashew and Walnut Spice in certified gluten free or organic. Lots of delicious things to choose from. Cindy wanted to remind you that her cookies should be stored in the fridge to keep them fresh. They are baked the fresh to order, but are really good cold too. Freeze a banana, grind it up in a food processor with cinnamon and top it on the cookie. YES!!! Nothing short of glorious. Access our CSA store here.

We had a great weekend here at the farm! The workers have been pulling 10 hour days and working 7 days a week for the past 3 months trying to keep up with everything. We were able to throw them a pig roast on Saturday. My husband roasted a pig and one of our own turkeys underground. I made a tub of guacamole and one of the worker’s wives made the biggest, best tasting bowl of mole I’ve ever had. At around 3:30 on Saturday, after everyone was done, we congregated on the farm and all ate together. It was great to show appreciation to the people who make this happen for us everyday. If you eat today, thank a farmer!! The weekend was also full of other things like putting plastic up on green houses, stringing up blackberries, picking all the veggies for the 8 farmers markets we visited yesterday and more.
Cindy Dollar is cooking up some new creations in her kitchen here in Goleta. Fresh baked cookies are now available in two flavors, Chocolate Chip Peanut Butter Oatmeal and Cran-Chocolate Almond Oatmeal. Made with organic ingredients, these cookies are freshly baked, soft and chewy. Find them under the granola tab in our store. And speaking of granola – pick yourself up a bag of Raisin Pecan this week made with certified organic or certified gluten free ingredients.
All of our turkeys are laying eggs now, so we’ve reduced the price on the eggs. The eggs taste just like a chicken egg, but are about 25-50% larger. They live intermingled with the chickens are eat the same diet.
